Those sashing strips took forever to do! I didn't do them the easy way of doing long strips and then cutting them because some of the FQs weren't quite long enough to get even two 10 1/2" pieces across the width.
I need to piece the borders because if I did them the length of the fabric the apples are all off-set and it didn't look right.
I think I might give it to my daughter to take to the LQS near her we went to and see about getting it quilted. I just don't have the time to hand quilt another one.

Thanks all. It does look cheerful. But dang!! I just saw that the top row of borders is wrong!! So carefully laid everything out, looked it over and over, but I still managed to put a mistake in it!!
Aw well, no one is perfect. :-)
I thought about trying to machine quilt the baby quilt I just did but, decided not too. I tried it once and it was horrible, the stitching was just bad. I haven't tried it on my new machine and I would have to do a lot of practicing first.
